Although that site looks like it is still being completed from the homepage. I think at the end of the day, as much as we jest, the simple truth is that Rich Energy is available in a number of places if you are wanting to buy it - and the book is available to pre-order from a number of places if you are wanting to read it. |

When I did the Google search under shopping the 'Rich Energy Store' didn't come up. But you are quite right, it's there if you do a general search. The link for Amazon also comes up but the picture is for a different energy drink and when you click on the link, the Rich Energy Drink, is nowhere to be found |

This new site (https://richenergystore.com/) seems to be a simple Shopify (http://myshopify.com/) site. Domain "who is" information shows that domain owner information is hidden away (not particularly uncommon). So it's unclear who controls that domain. The domain was registered Oct of last year, but was updated last Friday. I wonder if the Shopify store showed up just last Friday? If you look at the other social media accounts the Shopify page links to, the Twitter one is telling. It links to https://twitter.com/richenergy which is the account that seems to be controlled by OMG. While the one Storey uses is https://twitter.com/richenergyceo or https://twitter.com/rich_energy My best guess... There is behind the scenes drama around who controls various bits (such as internet domains, social media accounts) plus distribution rights. And the OMG group is using the new site to sell product. Maybe they are blocked from using the other. No doubt whatever is going on is probably an interesting story. Quote:
Haha. I can confirm... I am not William Storey. Or maybe William is that other personality rattling around in my head. He gets loose sometimes. If I was to pick someone as the secret William Storey, it might be crmalcolm.

I was interested in the book but GBP31.50 seems a bit steep for what is in essence a bit of nosiness on my part. Maybe it'll be on sale somewhere soon.

I had pre-ordered the book from Amazon, which I believe was due out at the end of August. About a month ago I had an email from Amazon saying that delivery had been delayed and giving me the option to cancel. About a week or so ago, Amazon cancelled my order so it looks like it might not be appearing....

Looking at Amazon (UK) today, there is 1 seller listing that they have a single copy available at £43.16. I suspect this mark-up is that they plan to drop-ship for a profit. |

The authors also call out to bring your copy to US GP in Austin as they plan to try to do some type of get together and I assume autograph copies. I do plan to be at the US GP and I hope I get my copy in time. I would be curious to talk with them and hear their thoughts on the current distribution drama. Richard |

Ask them if they know where you can buy a can of Rich energy.

See if you can get Storey to autograph it too?
